[Acer Iconia A500] dibb_nz:
Update.zip method was to try first. Cos, don't need cpuid for that one.

If it didnt work U need to download timmydeans v4 euu
[Acer Iconia A500] davidlabbott2:
Update.zip was unsuccessful. Believe me, i wouldn't dive head first into Linux programming if I didn't have to. Code is not my strong suit. Luckily, I'm good at following directions. V4 euu downloaded. I'll give it a try this evening. Thanks for all of your help. I saw a post of yours about a hardware fix. Has this been replicated by anyone or was it just that one guy with the superhuman soldering skills?
[Acer Iconia A500] dibb_nz:
not sure if anyone else is game to try - he could probably make a few bucks on here if he wanted! I think someone else tried it a year or so ago but they went thru a few more hoops as the tab would not charge either, I can't find that post though!!

tdv4 - theres two different methods for running tdv4

from HC rom follow the directions in the pdf for "upgrade process"

from ICS rom you must use the "downgrade process" - do not connect your usb cable UNTIL you see the "cannot detect your Iconia Tab" window.

It will give you instructions for manual apx mode - carry on from there....

It may still fail, as it needs usb debug enabled from your tab. You can try using lcd047's method using tdv4 and manual nvFlash commands - theres a short guide about it in my cpuid guide
[Acer Iconia A500] davidlabbott2:
I'm leaning towards hardware at this point. The tdv 4 install hangs at about 10%. The manual nvflash spits out an error at the partition 4 write. I'm probably missing something, as I have no solid programming skill set, but I've spent several hours trying to sort these pieces of **** out. I have an Acer laptop and I've decided the Iconia a500 is a bigger turd than even it is.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] irule9000:
This is a request for developers. I was looking at T-Mobile's android development section in order to find a rom that looked good to port using T3Project's method. I happened upon a rom called Liquid Smooth. Its an aosp based rom with many speed enhancements including Linaro. Unfortunately it looks like building something like that is beyond my skill, and I was wondering if someone who knows what they are doing could take a look at it. Please be aware that I have not yet contacted the developers of this rom and based on their work it looks like some of the stuff may be propriatary. I am not 100% on the rules of open source developing and don't want to break any liscening stuff.

[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s327374:
Hey,

Little numb at the moment. Left my tablet at work on Friday afternoon and got in this morning - monday. Tablet got picked up and taken from work on Friday night. I'm an idiot for leaving it there I guess. Had Cynogen's 4.2.1 latest nightlies installed and protected by lookout. Is there any hope I wonder? I checked it Friday afternoon and it was still at work - it ran out of battery and flared its position elsewhere later (but close by) on Friday night.

What chance of recovery do you think? Is there anything I should be trying? I live behind the great fire wall of china too...

Please, try not to mock me. It will be tough to explain to my pregnant wife this evening why I thought my work was so secure and that we didn't need to worry ...

Cheers,
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sickysticky:
A start would be if you have gps location set on your google account it could be tracked. also try contacting outlook n see where the tracking was. "Theres a record of every device registered", asuming you didnt enable the mock location in the dev menu. Hope it helps n sorry for your frustrations
[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s327374:
Thanks for the response. :good:

I was lucky and have got it back. The thief did not know enough about the technology to get away with it. Actually, I wonder now, if I should also do away with my passcode in case it gets stolen by a non-tech person.

But seriously, I ask for next time (I am sure there is possibility it may happen again) ... is there any better way to trace, than what I am using with Lookout? Can I embed something in the tablet that cannot be deleted without great difficulty - or is that in the realm of programmers (of which I am not) and serious tech wizards.

Actually, the plastic and glass is easily (ok not that easily) replaced, but I am really thankful that I found out who took it. Rather than be cursed with the doubt and nagging suspicion on people who are innocent (like the photocopier dude who turned up that afternoon and fixed the copier) That is the hurtful thing when something is stolen from a place where you feel some safety.

Anyway, is there a way to insert something without compromising my own security?

These things really should have this capability.

Cheers.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jhow2319:
Hey guys, this is my first time on this site, I was given this forum from a friend. Anyways, I just had an upgrade today with spring to their Samsung Galaxy S2. I attempted to root the new phone using Heimdall because it was compatible with my Mac instead of Odin. Somewhere along the root the phone became bricked with a flashing blue LED light. I'm unable to get anywhere with it, I've tried to remove the battery for an extended amount of time, attempted to get back to the download screen via volume down & power, tried the holding home with volume down & power button together, . The battery was at full charge during the root so I'm not quite sure what went wrong. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated! I don't know which ROM may of been flashed either...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Mattix724:
You've hard bricked. There is no recovering unless a JTAG can fix it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] boXerrumble:
Not trying to bash you, but if today was your first day after upgrading to a new phone, you should've probably researched our phone a little bit and how to properly root it before attempting to do so.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jhow2319:
Yeah, I definitely agree with you. Wasn't very smart on my part. I'm going to take it into the sprint store in the morning and tell them it kept giving me system updates so that's the reason it froze my phone. I should be able to exchange it because it's only a day old. I went in right before close and the guy told me the battery just needed to be charged, which obviously wasn't the case but they won't know that.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] -EViL-KoNCEPTz-:
Is the blue led flashing or solid? If its flashing usually if you charge the battery in a separate device/external charger or swap the battery for one fully charged from an external source it'll work. Blinking led usually means the battery is too low to fully boot the device

Solid blue led on the other hand means you're FUBAR and need a replacement

I like to break stuff! :D
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jhow2319:
Solid blue:( I think I should be good to go tomorrow without any hassle because I bought it from them this afternoon. They saw me come back in right before close so the employee told me the wrong information & thought the phone was good when it wasn't.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] chris-allen:
Here is what you do....take it back to sprint... Tell them it kept saying you had some sort of update.. So you clicked " update " ....then say it rebooted a few times and the last time it never came back on... They should replace it free.... Dont mention rooting or anything else...

[HTC Desire C] nikhil16242:
I also had a similar problem.It was solved after I did a full wipe and reflashed the Rom again.

But before doing that make sure all the drivers are installed correctly.Also try deleting all the scripts in init.d (might be because of some script too) reboot and retry :)
[HTC Desire C] whoamigriffiths:
There was an issue with the N7 (and Android coding istr) . People were connecting with usb3 sockets on their pc's . Using usb 2 solved the problem .

Sadly a lot also reported issues with the usb cable too . So try a different usb cable if you have it .

I know it all sounds freakish and I have never had the problem with my phone or N7 but you never know .

Hope this helps
[HTC Desire C] sarath19:
how to delete it?
[HTC Desire C] nikhil16242:
You can delete init.d scripts by going into your /system/etc/init.d folder.Mount system as r/w using root explorer before deleting.Then reboot and retry.I'm not sure it will help though(but no harm in trying :) )
[HTC Desire C] whoamigriffiths:
its a daft question I know , but have you accidentally set the phone to go to charge only when connected to pc and not to ask what connection you would like ?

the other is did you ever have htc sync working on that pc with windows8 ?(or have you upgraded since you unlocked your phone) If win8 is new and after you unlocked your phone you may have to do research or borrow a win 7 pc

I've never actually been able to get HTC sync to actually work on my windows7 pc. After quite literally a fortnight of searching and research and trial and error(this forum for the desire c didn't exist then, and I had no understanding what xda was or what they could do as this is my first smart phone) I eventually got my usb drivers to work using an old version of HTC Sync version 3.3.10 is what I'm using . I have usb working but HTC sync doesn't actually work .

I know these questions are stupid but they need asking to troubleshoot your problem .
[HTC Desire C] sarath19:
The phone never asks for connection type...and i had a working htc sync.This happend after i updated to nameless rom v7 by dirty flashing
[HTC Desire C] whoamigriffiths:
first thing then > check usb debugging is still turned on .

2nd go to settings>connect to pc > default connection type> and make sure its set to HTC sync Manager as its default setting..

If you set it to HTC sync and connect it to the pc and you stil;l get nothing my gut says its at your pc side . usb drivers or some other issue .

did you try a different usb cable ?

you have to give me some info back as to what steps you have tried so i can start ruling each one out.

do you have any nandroid backup at all ? it doesn't matter how old it is , if we can flash back to someting we know that works we at least can connect it to the pc and once again rule out if its the phone end or the pc end .
[HTC Desire C] sarath19:
i have a nandroid backup....i connected in disk drive mode also.but no use.only drive appears on system and when clicking it will show insert disk in to drive.i have formated the system and reinstalled the drivers.but no use.....

If your phone is rooted, try downloading 'fasterfix' from the play store and use it to set your location.

Use 'GPS Status & Toolbox' to redo your aGPS data afterwards and see if it that helps as well.

Try to leave it running for 2 mins outdoors, stationary. Set the program to leave the display on when that application is running. I think it should work better afterwards.
